What are the taboos about the toilet orientation in the bathroom?

The indispensable toilet in the bathroom should not be underestimated. If the toilet is not installed properly, it may affect the geomantic omen of the whole room. So, is there any feng shui taboo in the toilet?

Toilet is our daily cleaning place, and it also has a special position in Feng Shui. It is considered as a place where people hide evil things and evil spirits gather, so the feng shui of the whole bathroom is particularly important. The bathroom is the most important toolbar in it, so will its orientation affect the feng shui layout of the bathroom?

1. The toilet is in the wrong direction. Doors and houses

According to the principle of traditional geomantic omen in China, the direction of the bathroom should not be the same as that of the residential gate. For example, the direction of the gate faces south, so when people sit on the toilet, if the face also faces south, it is a toilet and a house.

2. The toilet should be hidden.

If the bathroom is relatively large, you can arrange it in a position that you can't see from the door, and hide it behind low walls, screens and curtains. Of course, you must also ensure that you can't see it from any mirror. This ensures the beauty of the bathroom space.

3. Toilets, toilets and sewage pipes

In ordinary houses, the sewage outlet of the bathroom has been located and is not easy to change. If you want to change the orientation of the toilet, you must pay great attention to the slope of the sewage pipe to avoid blockage.

4, toilet toilet level

Some people like to build a basin platform one or two steps higher than the ground in the bathroom, and then embed the bathtub into the basin platform. This pattern is really beautiful, but I suggest that you don't use this pattern in the bathroom cover of your bedroom. You can use layers with gradual height, such as floor, toilet and sink.

5. The toilet door of the bathroom is vertical or thick.

Don't point the toilet at the door of the bathroom. It's unsightly to squat on the toilet just facing the door. So the toilet seat and the bathroom door are vertical or staggered.

6. The toilet cannot know the punching position.

The bathroom should not be hidden in the punching position and the kitchen position. Toilets should not be on the "four main lines" and "four corner lines"

7. The toilet should be against the wall.

The toilet should be against the wall. If the toilet is in the middle of the bathroom, it will destroy the harmony of the overall air conditioning in the bathroom and bring inconvenience to life.

8. The toilet should not sit facing south.

The bathroom belongs to five or more elements of water, while the south-central orientation of the living room belongs to fire. Therefore, when designing and configuring the bathroom and other equipment, we must prevent the whole room from facing south, so as not to cause "uncoordinated" feng shui problems and bring great trouble to the room.
